Total announces the distribution of its first 2018 interim dividend

The Board of Directors met on September 19, 2018 and declared a first interim dividend for the 2018 fiscal year of €0.64 per share, in accordance with the Board’s decision of April 25, 2018, an
increase of 3.2% compared to the three interim dividends and the final dividend paid for the 2017 fiscal year. The Board of Directors also decided to offer, under the conditions of the fourth
resolution of the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting of June 1, 2018, the option for shareholders, including holders of its American Depositary Shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange (ADS), to
receive this first interim dividend either in cash or in new shares of the Company.

In line with the shareholder return policy announced on February 8, 2018, in order to avoid any dilution linked to the issuance of new shares, the Group will buy back during the quarter the newly
issued shares with the intention to cancel them.

The share price for the new shares to be issued as payment of the first 2018 interim dividend is set by the Board of Directors at €52.95. This price is equal to the average Euronext Paris opening
prices of the shares for the twenty trading days preceding the meeting of the Board of Directors on September 19, 2018, reduced by the net amount of the interim dividend, without any discount,
rounded up to the nearest cent. Shares issued accordingly will carry immediate dividend rights and an application to trading on Euronext Paris will be made.

Shareholders and holders of ADS will receive this first interim dividend, and will have the option to receive a payment either in cash or in new shares by instructing their financial advisors, as
per the following timetable:
